Create Three Dimensional Jewelry: Combine Stitching, Embellishing, Layering, and Riveting

Inspired by the craftsmanship and attention to detail of early costume jewelry, Heather DeSimone demonstrates how to create fun, one-of-a-kind pieces by teaching techniques for layering readily available components in Create Three Dimensional Jewelry. Jewelry makers will learn how to layer premade components, make beaded clusters, create beaded loops, weave seed beads, embellish filigree components, rivet stamped metal pieces, and more as they create 21 unique projects. Most importantly, mastering this three-dimensional approach to "building" jewelry teaches designers to think about using their materials in a new way.

Heather DeSimone is an owner of The Beadin’ Path, a bead shop specializing in vintage and Lucite jewelry in Freeport, ME where she also resides.
